I played it at Nationals and got 10th on tiebreakers (though I'll admit it wasn't a huge turnout). But games I lost was due to not drawing land and my hand was more than suited to win the game so no game felt outta hand as long as I had mana. So I added a land in place of where I had a 3rd 'Lead the Stampede'..... The deck wants to hit 4+ mana as soon as possible, so having 12 creatures in the 1-2 slot that allows me to hit that point a turn quicker is beneficial. Nest Invader also puts 2 guys on the board to help chump block versus aggro if need be to help me survive. Let me know what you think and any suggestions would be appreciated.
